Southampton have been in excellent form in the Premier League recently.
Southampton winger Nathan Redmond spoke to reporters after his side’s 2-1 win over Everton at St Mary’s yesterday, and shared something that Ralph Hasenhüttl has made him and his teammates realise, as quoted by the club’s official website.
The Saints seem to be like a team re-born since the Austrian took over, and they are now playing with a certain kind of energy, enthusiasm and fight that they desperately lacked under Mark Hughes.
Redmond himself has been like a totally different player under Hasenhüttl’s tutelage.
The 24-year-old has scored five goals and registered two assists since the Austrian took charge at Southampton, and he has embodied everything that this new Saints team is all about.
The former Norwich City ace spoke to reporters after yesterday’s win, and shared how much the 51-year-old has influenced Southampton over the past six weeks, as quoted by the club’s official website:
“The nitty-gritty stuff that you see a lot of the boys doing – the tackles, the defending, winning the balls in midfield and chasing around up front – all becomes enjoyable for us now. The gaffer has made us aware that if we enjoy doing that, it’ll make the game twice as easy when we’re trying to go forward. We’re benefiting from everybody working for each other.”
Southampton will be looking to make it three straight wins in the Premier League when they welcome Crystal Palace to St Mary’s in 10 days time.
And Redmond will be keen to continue his fine recent run of form, by helping his side to another vitally important three points.
